Milex Robot Vacuum Battery Replacement

[Tripp Powell]

It is my gut feeling that you have some battery problems here. Go ahead and try this: If your Roomba is indicating a full charge, but it only runs for 15 minutes when you press clean, you need to reset the charging system. You can do this by removing the battery from the robot and unplugging the charger from the wall and robot. Please hold the power button down for 30 seconds. It is to be done with the battery out and the charger disconnected. This will the capacitor circuits of the Roomba. After this, replace the battery and charge the robot If that does not work you might just have to get a new battery. Here are a few sites with more info on this cool instrument... -info.com/roomba-batte... and and for spare parts if needed -repair-ce... luck

It's March 2018 and I'm having a similar problem with my Roomba 655. Of course I'm out of the warranty period. I bought a new $80 battery, but the problem remained--which really irritated me--so it is NOT a battery problem for me.

So, before just sending the new battery back and chunking Mr. Roomba in the trash I decided to closely observe my obstinate Roomba 655 while in operation and noticing WHEN it stops. I believe that the battery is losing its connectivity to the battery prongs because it typically stops working and the battery light flashes amber AFTER it bumps the wall, goes over an air vent, or goes on or off a mat or area rug-- although sometimes it does just randomly stop for no apparent reason but I think this is also a loss of battery connectivity. If I simply place the Roomba back on the charging base, sometimes it will just restart normally (it's like it has to remind itself, "oh, we DO have a battery connection").

So, finally I opened up obstinate Roomba and put a buffer between the battery and the bottom cover in an effort to absorb battery movement during operation. (I used a strip of the spongy material that's normally used to keep rugs from sliding around). This has helped my problem IMMENSELY and some days my Roomba will run a complete cycle without stopping and other days it stops and I have to just press the CLEAN button or I have to return it to the base , wait about about a minute (give it time to think :) and press CLEAN . I'm still trying to figure this out and get to the point that the Roomba does not stop mid-cycle, so my next action will be to bend the silver prongs that the battery connects to.

Bent the prongs and that seemed to help for a few uses, but the mid-cycle halt persisted. Decided to spend the $80 for a new battery from iRobot company thinking this was surely the problem, but ... no. Problem persisted. So frustrating! Although it goes against my practices to buy a second product from a company after getting a dud, eventually I gave in and bought a new Roomba because I love NOT having to vac my hard floors. New Roomba is working well.

Thanks Tamara, I was having the same problem. Did all the reset suggestions to no avail. Read your post, grabbed a self - adhesive felt pad made for sticking to furniture legs to prevent scratching the floor, stuck it to the bottom cover above the battery. Worked like a charm. Definitley a connection problem.

Mine is the 800 seiries. It also had a short run cycle. It alos did poor cleaning for the5 minutes it ran. I tried all of thetips I found online for a thourough cleaning and battery reset. My cure was that I found lots of hair inside the roller brushes- under the yellow cap on thier axle. This was a big power drain. The yellow cap pulls off and the post that it was attached to pulls off. This allows access to the gunk. I did check the other end of the brush rollers. That side does not seem to come apart, but I was able to see inside and it was clean.

My advise - buy original one. Its expensive but lasts as minimum 2-3 years. The replace cheap batteries from China (the biggest part of sell in e-bay and aliexpress) are mostly fake, robot cant last 1-1,5h for full cicle and after year you will be at same point - what to do, my robot lasts only 5 minutes....

Hello, i purchased aftermarket battery, claims 5 Ah or more (compared to my previous Li-Ion 1,8 Ah), but it seems the robot cant sense it is charged, so what happens is i reset robot, batt shows full, then it start vacuuming daily, one cycle is around 1 h and the battery is slowly draining even put on dock. It comes to the situation that the robot would not start due to empty batt, but when i reset the robot, it shows full batt again.

I also opened the doct, when the robot is vacuuming, there is around 3 V on the pads, then, when it parks at the dock, it jumps to 20 V and then when robot decides to charge, it drops to around 14 to 17 V depends on how empty is the battery.

Typically, the rechargeable battery is located in the robot vacuum storage compartment. To locate this, remove the dust bin and unlatch the cover of the battery compartment. You might be required to pull the cables out and push a latch to release the battery. Once the old battery is removed, insert the new one, ensuring it clicks into place then refit the cover.

If your robot vacuum comes with vacuuming accessories, these might also become blocked over time. In addition, static charge could cause a build-up of dust on the vacuum and should be removed with a soft and dry cloth. The plastic accessories can be cleaned with a dry or slightly damp cloth, or with a suitable plastic cleaner solution.
